Survival Machines (Lyrics)

Nature red In tooth and claw Forgive us our fatal flaws Count your sins And clench your fists But your veins have built a prison Bound by skin And broken limbs We break the shell we're hiding in We are more than our bodies We are more than we've become We are more than our bodies We are immaterial These scars won't sever our ties Because this flesh is just a disguise Though breathless lungs and blinded eyes May leave us slaves to the design And when all we're worth Is swallowed by a hungry earth Our fears will drown in the ocean's thirst And the stars will cradle our rebirth We are more than our bodies We are more than we've become We are more than our bodies We are immaterial And when nothing's left We will break the bonds of flesh Soon the weave these sinews spun Will melt into the sun This won't last forever This won't last forever When all is said and done Who will speak for everyone? This won't last forever This won't last forever We are more than our bodies We are more than we've become We are more than our bodies We are immaterial This won't last forever
